Paul McCartney Sets All-Time Attendance Record at Fenway

Former Beatle Paul McCartney played two shows on August 5 & 6 in Boston, and set the record for highest two-day attendance for any concert in the history of Fenway park. Not only that, but live Nation Boston's Dave Marsden commented, "No one in history has ever had 33 hits in one night at Fenway Park" - regarding McCartney's set list, which featured Beatles, Wings, and solo hits. His earlier shows at New York's Citi Field and DC's Fed Ex Field have also received rave reviews.

McCartney has three more dates for his summer 2009 U.S tour, including an August 15 show in Atlanta, one in Tulsa on August 17 (which sold out instantly), and a finale in Dallas on August 19. Due to overwhelming demand, Live Nation and AEG Live have announced that they will release additional seats for the August 19 concert. The Dallas show is not only the conclusion of the tour, but is also McCartney's first appearance in the city since 2005.

Jacko Hopes To Kiss & Make-Up With Paul McCartney!

Could this celebrity feud be over and done with? Michael Jackson hopes to bury his 24-year feud with Sir Paul McCartney – by leaving his share of the Beatles back catalogue to him in his will.

Sir Paul was furious when Jacko outbid him in 1985 to win ownership of the £350million publishing rights to the whole Lennon-McCartney songbook.
The stars, once good pals who collaborated on early 80s hits The Girl is Mine and Say, Say, Say have not spoken since. Jacko has apparently written in his will that all the ownership rights are to go back to McCartney! Hmm, how do you think Jackson would feel if McCartney did that to him?
